Hey Folks,
I just test drove my friends 2001 Excursion diesel and it is much quieter than mine and seems to run smoother.
He has done the following to his rig:
Exhaust
AFE Intake
Cross over tube
Superchip and Edge attitude programmer (stacked) at modest settings
He runs 5W30 Amsoil
He says he runs ULSD fuel with no problems
He has not done any fuel system mods
He is a Master Tech and owns HIgh Tech 4*4 in Chantilly, VA
He works this truck really hard by towing a 39' Formula boat every week.
I always thought that Ford made the 2002 7.3 slightly quieter than the 2001 with some injector changes.
The sound of my 7.3 seems to change from week to week. At times it seems it is louder the lower the fuel tank gets. Perhaps I have got some big time air leaks in the fuels system and my friends rig has none or fewer from the factory??
The mods I have done are listed below.
I am ready to do the fuel system mods.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Brian
